LOWELL -- Sophomore forward Scott Wilson netted two goals to power the UMass Lowell hockey team past Maine, 4-2, in the first game of the Hockey East quarterfinal round series Thursday at the Tsongas Arena.

UML (23-10-2) hosts Game 2 on Friday and a win would send the River Hawks to Boston for the semifinals.

Maine grabbed a 1-0 lead, but Wilson and the River Hawks responded. Also scoring goals for UML were Joseph Pendenza and Josh Holmstrom, both in the third period.
